The Conceited Young Man

He couldn't describe what it felt like, but as the only son of the emperor, he had been doted upon by his sisters and favored by his father since he was young, so he wasn't as relaxed and happy as the common folk thought.

Everyday, he would either follow the Imperial Advisor Xun Bailiu to study the laws of war or learn battle skills from the emperor's tutor Ye Lin. The dazzling splendor of the palace made him feel breathless.

He often thought that if his father didn't have a son like him, he probably wouldn't want to make him Crown Prince. After all, a prince who did not have the slightest bit of authority like him and instead liked the rhythm of the Daoist magic was just a synonym for any overlord.

However, the Heavens seemed to not like the Emperor of Chu. Chu Yi already had three princesses on him, and it was not easy for the imperial concubine to give birth to another heir. Chu Yi was full of anticipation, but the Heavens sent him a sister.

Feeling extremely helpless, Chu Ying had no choice but to compromise with the Chu Emperor. However, he mentioned that he wanted to go out and travel for a bit. Furthermore, he had to train for a year on Wudang Mountain with Wang Mingyang.

Emperor Chu naturally didn't want to do so. It had to be said that the Emperor and Chu Huainan were very different in terms of fatherhood. Chu Yinan felt that allowing Xu Qingzhi to travel would allow him to hone his skills while the Chu Emperor was even more worried about Chu Yin's safety. Perhaps, as an emperor, his treatment of his son was extremely important?

That day, Wang Mingyang had personally come to the Supreme Mystery Temple, and explained the firmness of Chu Yingdao's dao heart that he had never seen before. After a series of "painstaking efforts" in persuading him, Wang Mingyang had used his own name to guarantee that nothing would happen to Chu Ying. However, it was also an agreement that Chu Yin would return to the palace immediately after she finished her training in Wudang Mountain and had completed her travels.

The other day, after Wang Mingyang left with Chu Ying, Emperor Chu gave Ye Lin a meaningful look. Ye Lin sighed and shook his head.

Against Wang Mingyang, he had no chance of winning.

Seeing that the Grandmaster shook his head helplessly, Emperor Chu was even more determined to enforce the Forbidden Martial Order.

In this way, without anyone's knowledge, our Prince Jing had been practicing for a year in the Wudang Mountains, and Wang Mingyang had a good opinion of him. In a short year, Chu Ying had already risen to the fifth rank. The most surprising thing was that during this year, Chu Ying rarely practiced her swordsmanship. She didn't even wear a sword, nor did she carry a weapon. Every day, she would only play the zither, play the zither, and play the zither, producing a fifth rank expert just like that.

Wang Mingyang had already sent out the other young disciples of this generation that should have gone out for a walk. However, Chu Yi, the current champion of this generation, had entered the sect late, and only now did he officially let him go down the mountain.

Listening to Wang Mingyang explain, Chu Huai and Nanping restored the puzzlement in their hearts. It was just that there was one more thing, this should be a matter between Mount Wudang and the palace, what did this Wang Mingyang want from him?

"In that case, where is Prince You planning to travel to?"

Out of politeness, Chu Yinan casually asked.

"Right now, I should still be able to make it to Long Xi."

"Oh, oh, Longxi is fine... Where? "Longxi?"

Wasn't that where Qing'er was staying now?

Chu Yinan was confused by Wang Mingyang's actions. He looked straight at Wang Mingyang without saying a word, but in his heart, he was wondering if this was really Wang Mingyang's idea or if it was a trick from the palace.

"There's no need to be surprised. The reason for seeking the general here today is naturally to discuss something with him."

"Do you want me to promise you that I will travel with your highness, the Crown Prince?"

Wang Mingyang smiled without saying a word, and lightly nodded his head.

Chu Wannan looked at the Crown Prince. Although the latter had the status of a Crown Prince, he didn't have the slightest bit of consciousness of being a superior. In fact, he seemed somewhat otherworldly when he hugged his zither.

"General, sir, I will take my leave first. There are still a lot of things to be packed."

There was nothing special about it. The object that Wang Mingyang had asked him to give as the crown to walk on was the "Jiao Wei" zither, it could at most carry a few pieces of clothing.

Chu Yinan and Wang Mingyang also quickly stood up and respectfully sent the crown prince out.

"Now, it's time to have a good talk with me."

"What does the general want to know?"

Chu Yinan looked at Wang Mingyang's calm demeanor and had some thoughts in his mind. However, after thinking about it for a while, he decided to let Wang Mingyang go today as he was not with his 400000 Steel Cavalry.

"I'll just say it directly, do you mean Wudang Mountain or the Palace?"

"What do you think of the sect?" So what if it's the palace's idea? "

Chu Yinan thought about it and said, "If it's your arrangement, then you can consider it. But I also need to make clear what your plans are. If that's what the palace thinks, yes, I agree to it. "

This time, it was Wang Mingyang's turn to be surprised. Seeing that Wang Mingyang's relaxed state of mind had finally been broken by him, Chu Huainan felt at ease.

"Don't look at me with such a gaze. If it's the Imperial Palace's idea, it means that His Majesty intends to ease the relationship between the Northwest and the Imperial Court. How could I not take advantage of the situation?"

Wang Mingyang smiled slightly. Everyone knew that Duke Huai, Chu Huainan, was in the northwest side of the world, and he had been causing a ruckus all the time. Who would have thought that neither Duke Huai nor His Majesty would want to get into an argument with each other? However, Emperor Chu had no choice but to guard against Chu Yinan for the sake of Jiang Shan and Chu Yinan.

How could an outsider understand the complex relationship between the two?

"It was my idea."

"Oh? "I don't understand, but I do remember that Qing almost died in your hands."

Chu Yinan's tone turned cold as a chill ran down his spine.

"General, I might have made a mistake in the past few days, but I can't afford to go any further."

"What do you mean?"

"Back then, I really wanted to kill that infant, and I didn't want you to know that I died in the hands of others, so when I found out about the difficult situation you were facing back then, I set this up. I wanted to use the cold energy of the Sword Seed that I had just mastered to slowly erode that baby away. However, fate cannot be defied. "

Chu Yinan could not suppress his anger. Although he had thought of this long ago, when he heard Wang Mingyang admit it himself, he was still enraged.

[Who cares if you are number one or not, I will kill you!

Without any warning, Chu Huainan pulled out his saber from his waist and slashed at Wang Mingyang!

"..."

A quarter of an hour later, Wang Mingyang brushed the dust off his daoist robe, and invited Chu Huainan, who was carrying a broken sabre, to his seat with a smile.

"The great general is still as tough as ever. Can you allow this old Daoist to finish?"

"Humph!"

Chu Yinan snorted in dissatisfaction, but he was still shocked. Wang Mingyang had already reached this level, how could his strength have increased so much? Or had Wang Mingyang held back in the match that day?

"Back then I was thinking that if Duke Huai of the Northwest had lost his son, then it would not be anyone's fault. Whether it was when Duke Huai was succeeded by Murong Qianxu or when he was sent by the Imperial Court, the Northwest would not be as rigid as they are now. "This way, the Imperial Court can set their mind at ease to the northwest. Moreover, the northwest side will not suffer too much loss in combat power. Although the Northwest Army's morale is no longer very high, at least the Northwest Armoured Cavalry is still intact."

At this point, Wang Mingyang paused for a moment, sighed and continued, "But I didn't expect that those people from Saibei would have such plans."

Chu Yinan, who had been looking down the whole time, finally turned around when she heard this. Lu Chong's Immortal Gate martial artists?

"Didn't those military men always wanted to get revenge on me? "What other plans do you have?"

Wang Mingyang also knew that even though Chu Yinan was in charge of the northwest, the government of the north was too secretive.

"Just like you, if I didn't see that person, I would probably never have thought that they would actually have this kind of idea."

"What idea?"

Seeing how cautious Wang Mingyang was, Chu Yinan had a bad premonition.

"General, we military men are like ants!"

Wang Mingyang's eyes lit up. Chu Yinan had never seen Wang Mingyang in such a rage before.

"Wang Dan is still alive. Furthermore, the Land of the Chaotic Immortal School is the sect he founded. "

After a long while, Wang Mingyang who had calmed down slowly spoke a shocking piece of news.

Wang Dan? Land facing the Door of Immortality? That's right, he should have thought of it long ago. With such great ability, only Wang Dan, who placed first on the two standings, would be able to rope in such a team.

"Moreover, the current him is no longer a match for me."

"What!"

Suddenly, Chu Huai Nan remembered the news that Murong Qian Xun had told him at the top of the city walls that day. With just a glance, I feel like I have fallen into a cold cave and am unable to move. "

"How is this possible? I've never heard of Wang Ziyi practicing martial arts."

Wang Mingyang helplessly shook his head and said, "That's right, what he cultivates is not martial arts …" It's the Dao of Immortality!

"Impossible!"

He was sure that Chu Huainan would be like this, so he smiled bitterly.

"I know too. It's unbelievable. But that's the truth. He came to me that day and wanted me to join them. "

Chu Huai Nan looked fixedly at Wang Mingyang.

"I refused."

"Why?"

Cultivation of the Dao of Immortality was a testament to his longevity. Wasn't this what Wang Mingyang wanted the most?

"Because I can't kill all the people in the world to gain my way."

The old Daoist Priest let out a long sigh. He had practiced cultivation for decades, and had been invincible in the mortal world for decades. However, he had never been able to pass through that door.

"Why? This and … What does Immortal Cultivation have to do with that? "

"Wang Ziyi told me that the reason why the strength of these martial artists in the martial arts world has been so low recently is because we don't know who secretly stole a part of the Dragon and Tiger aura into the martial world. When we, martial artists, practice cultivation, we more or less attract the Dragon and Tiger aura into our bodies, which is why we have such a special method that transcends ordinary people."

"Dragon and Tiger Qi?"

"Dragon and Tiger Qi." When national power was flourishing, the dragon and tiger fates would not disperse, and only the decline in national power would cause turbulence. If the country was in a state of great chaos, then the dragon and tiger fates would be the most chaotic, and also the most opportune time to take advantage of. The Prince wanted to steal the kingdom! In this way, the destiny of the Dragon and Tiger can be fully brought into the world of martial arts so that all martial artists can cultivate immortality and live an eternal life! "

What sort of scene was that? Perhaps sword immortals and spear immortals would appear one after another, but before that … Was the whole world in ruins? Were there not many casualties among the ordinary citizens?

"Great General, that's why I wanted to send Crown Prince Yi to the side of the crown prince. I hope that we can resolve the relationship between the two parties." Moreover, Crown Prince possesses my sword seed, so you can already be considered half a cultivator. Perhaps, in such a future, His Highness the crown prince is our only chance of survival. "

Chu Yinan was speechless. To him, what Wang Mingyang had said was too hard to accept. Chu Yinan was not a young man who had just started his career. Naturally, he would not believe Wang Mingyang's words so easily, but a voice in his heart kept saying that what Wang Mingyang had said was true.

"Prince Yi …" "Let's go and travel with Qing Zhi."

Wang Mingyang finally smiled happily. It was just as he had said, perhaps Xu Qingzhi really was the last thread of hope. He had to ensure that this last thread of hope would not become a blade in the hands of Prince Yi, but rather a blade that was used to stir up all sorts of strife in the world.

There was one more thing that he did not tell Chu Huainan, and that was that he had learnt from Prince Yi a martial art of looking forward to success. The reason he had brought Crown Prince Yi out of the palace was because he had his eyes on his dao heart, and the second was because of the luck of the True Dragon above his head!

In this world, at the very least in Chu, perhaps only Xu Qingzhi's Wyrm Python could match up to the might of this True Dragon.

He had already made up his mind. When he returned to the northwest, he would first gather all the Crow's Crows he had under him and throw them all to the north. No matter what time those people eat, he would have to investigate them thoroughly!

If Prince Ziyi really wanted to steal the country's destiny, he would never put himself in front of the stage. Instead, he would make his goal known to the public, which would certainly cause the unity of the entire country. At that time, the so called Dragon and Tiger karmic luck should be unprecedented.

Thus, the Prince could only add fuel to the fire. And the easiest to make use of would probably be the Northwest.

If that was the case, wouldn't it be dangerous to celebrate?

It could only be said that the affairs of the world were unpredictable. When Cui Wei had sent the news of Wang Jing's departure back to the Huai King Manor, Chu Yinan had happened to be missing. Even now, he still did not know that Wang Jing was no longer by Xu Qingzhi's side.

Fortunately, she was carrying an imperial concubine. The moment she received the news, she immediately thought of her current predicament, which was facing a great grandmaster. On her side, it seemed like only Chu Huai Nan could handle the situation effectively, and Murong Qian Xun and the Northwest Armoured Cavalry could not be controlled casually.

After a calm analysis, Imperial Concubine Huai made a shocking move. She personally sent a letter to the Missing Moon Tower, and afterwards, the Missing Moon Tower sent seventeen people to Longxi.

Of course, the 'Missing Moon Restaurant' did not send people out to curry favor with Chu Huainan. She had heard from Princess Wangfei that there was a shadow of the 'Missing Moon Pavilion' in the actions against Xu Qing.

Whether it was to avoid suspicion or to avoid completely bringing the Missing moon tower to the opposite side of Chu Huainan, it didn't matter that the owner of the Missing moon tower thought highly of this matter. He immediately sent people to guard it, but it was unknown whether or not any of the people sent had ulterior motives.
